Raycom Sports – HD2 Production Truck

Building a broadcast truck for live sporting events in a compressed time frame.

CHALLENGE

The project had to be fast-tracked for completion in 5 months for its broadcast of an NFL pre-season game. In addition, Raycom Sports wanted the operators of their existing 2-year old truck to have operational ability quickly with little training.

ACTION

Diversified designed the truck’s floor plan together with the client and trailer manufacturer, Gerling and Associates.

The Diversified team then laid out a project plan to work within the fast-tracked timeline and designed a build that would be similar to the previous truck so operators could be up and running quickly.

Diversified assembled the trailer, equipment, and components in our Santa Clara, CA facility, and worked out any compatibility and mechanical issues.

RESULT

Diversified has built dozens of outside broadcast vans and trailers. They were the logical choice for Raycom Sports to build HD2. Now Raycom can cover more sporting events and have increased their capacity to meet the growing demand of the ACC Conference and the spike in live content on regional sports networks.
